I ask somebody around whenever I get lost.
But, recently, it's difficult to talk to someone. People are busy using smartphones or wearing earphones on the road...

Dear Editor,
My english teacher tought me " go straight ahead " but in this listening part you use " go straight on " ı wonder is there any difference between these two phrases in daily usage.
If you answer my question ı would be happy...

Hi bilko. Those two phrases have the same meaning and in general you can use either one.

There's a small difference in usage: 'go straight on' is often used after some place that you mention (e.g. 'After the traffic lights, go straight on') and I think 'go straight ahead' is less common for this.

Well, if I have a cellphone with internet I search the location to the place I wanna go, but if I don't have one, I look for someone to ask him to tell me some directions to the place that I want to go.
